In a statement yesterday, Tinubu’s spokesman, Mr. Tunde Rahman, denied that his boss was supporting both men in preparation for his potential presidential candidacy in 2023.
“Not only are these reports utterly false, baseless as they are in the febrile imaginations of those persons by whom they are being peddled, they are injurious to President Buhari’s historic quest to reform Nigeria. It is for this latter reason that we find cause to speak out where otherwise we would have continued to watch on in silent amusement.
“The peddlers of these rumours have arrogated to themselves the preternatural ability to read Asiwaju’s mind more than he himself can know it. They also seem to have acquired the unique gift of bending time so that 2023 appears before we even reach the midway point of 2019. If these people would only enlist their uncanny talents in the service of the nation instead of in the service of political intrigue and gossip mongering our country, it would be much the better.
Wahala dey oooo
I no blame am...i blame this thing called Nigeria. AtikuIsComing
Loyalty to whom? Nigeria or individuals?
It is only in Nigerian democracy that the principle of separation of powers is called working against the interest of the executive . Tinubu it is in your right to support whoever you like but know that the house reserves the right to choose their leaders pls take note ..
This man called Tinubu is the worst thing ever to happen to Nigeria politics he is too greedy as he has pocketed Lagos State for over 20 yrs & now he wants to pocket the whole of Nigeria all to himself by picking senate president & house of representatives speaker what a criminal
Tinubu is nothing but a gold diger

Saraki is a betrayer some tribes have used him and dumped him...jagaban you are too powerful for them joor.
Power and influence are transient.
Hypocrites at the corridors of power .
